Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm artificial fibers exceed 50% for accurate HTS classification under 9619.00.43.00

• Include detailed invoices specifying disposable diaper use and material breakdown to prevent reclassification as paper products

• Check for FDA compliance if marketed for medical use, as sanitary napkin-like items may require additional registrations
